Losing guns

First of all. I Searched for simillar threads, but i apologize if such thread has already been made.

Today i went all the way out to Guangdong, which was quite a ride and actually took several hours, to buy the amazing Coalation Gatling Gun.

After buying it and getting back to New London, i decided to engage myself in a fight to test out the weapons. I fought three Molly's i think, nothing special, and after the fight, from which i almost took no dmg, one of my four Gatlings were missing.

I know that you mayhabs loose a gun in a fight, some ships has a higher prob than others, but isen't that supposed to happen after the shield goes down?

Henceforth: After my 1-1,5 week on this server, i already lost a lot of weapons in combat, which is a part of the game, but first of all. Would it lower the games difficulty too much to just slighty decrease the chance of loosing ones guns in combat?

Secondly.
Is it possible to make a stat, like shield/hull dmg, which tells how strong the attacher is? and then the better the weapon, the better the attacher would be?

I really need a break right now i think. Don't feel like going all the way back to get one more gun, and then to loose them again before even using them for real

I know this probably would require some work since you would have to go through it with all weapons, so maybe just do it on the class 9+10 or something like that?

Nope, i made sure when i docked in new London, that everything was mounted and ready. Then i randomly got by the Molly's just outside the station.

Nope, don't have money enough to repay for all the guns that ship lost

Flying in a Shroud. Flew a titan before though

But i was just outside the New London Planet, or the base outside the planet, from which i departed nuked 3 criminals like shit, and during that fight, lost my gun.

This post was ment as a suggestion for the mod btw
